I just cannot figure out where these numbers are coming from.  OK, 35 is the production needed for an outpost to finish creation, but why does it start with 6?, and why does it say 'initial duration 16" when I *just* started it?  Why does it now only take 12 if it was supposed to take 16?  The location only has 2 production, so how is it getting approximately 2.5 per turn?  The tooltips are not giving me enough info and I can't figure out where to start an outpost which will grow 'fast' as opposed to slow.  I guess more production is better, but I just want to understand the full formula.
